The only thing that'll make housework fun is playing music while doing it

Disney is merely a way to escape realism and hope what’s made up in the films could be true

Disney showed us that as much as we may go through our struggles in life there's always light at the end of the tunnel as long as you stay positive

It's true disney did give us some unrealistic point of views but their were some realistic things too for example when tina's father told her that wishing on a star will only take you half way there and you have to put in some hard work to make your dream come true.

Twenty years ago, in the weeks before my wedding, I actually sang everywhere. I sang in the street, I sang in meetings, I sang in the bank. Most observers enjoyed it and thought it cute. Your life can be a musical - up to you

Disney definitely needs to do at least one movie where the villain meets their end on a sickbed, at a ripe old age, but where they're still getting their comeuppance because the last things they see are celebrations of their impending deaths. Whether it's the hero giving them one last speech about [insert central theme of the movie here], a literal celebration that they can see on TV, or even just all of their equally evil family and associates plotting to alter his will. The thing about evil people is that, while they rarely ever get a comeuppance on a Disney-like level, none of them get to stay evil forever. Sooner or later, they're all going to lose it all just by sheer virtue of the fact that they can't take it with them. Henry Kissinger may have been given a Nobel peace prize and lived to be a hundred, but that didn't stop people from dancing on his grave.

I always wished that I could sing about my wants, while backed up by talking animals.

High School Musical convinced me that I would be cool and have my whole life planned out by the time I graduated. I'm 25 and still have no idea what I'm doing.

Maybe I'm one of the few, but I do find housework fun once I get myself going. You know you're an adult when you get excited over a new vacuum cleaner, lol

If you play music when doing chores will be easier; if you play the right songs

It's alarming how many Disney properties feature the protagonist running away to seek greater adventures, which might inspire impressionable viewers.

Interesting. However, even though I grew up on Disney, I really don't remember confusing these wonderful films with real life. In fact, that's why we went to the movies,, go get a break from real life. What happened in the movies, stayed in the movies.

Honestly singing helps me do my work a lot more often it not only allows me to practice my vocals but just singing in general helps me but of course we all life isn't some cartoon musical where you sing a little song and your insipid dreams magically come true so let it go.😂

If you're the underdog, you are destined to do great things. Everything will fall into place.

I wouldn't say finding true love is on this list. It's a 1 in a million chance but it's still worth looking for that special person. You never know where you'll find them. 💞

Parents don't understand. That'll never change

7:48 I guess someone forgot Pinocchio

As unrealistic as Disney films can be (at times as far fetched as an action film and cliche) it takes you away from how rotten our world has become. As much as I tear up when I watch Beauty & The Beast or The Lion King, I still enjoy it cause it’s just not about love, it’s also about acceptance which is why I also love The Hunchback of Notre Dame. I also prefer the live action Cinderella, no offence to the animated version.

Here's a dark one: "Fathers and brothers will always be around"

Thanks, MsMojo. I certainly was not ready for such a brutal dressing-down tonight. Where should I send the therapy bill?

Hearing Number 10, It's impossible for Disney movies to be good without being full on musicals. Because let's face it the musical numbers are one of the many things that make Disney movies fun to watch. But it also doesn't mean that the characters in Disney movies have to just randomly burst into song at the drop of a hat every 10 minutes.

Sometimes I wish I lived in a Disney movie lol.

So, with housework, it really depends on what exactly you gotta do! I don't mind cleaning windows and I love cooking, but other things like vacuuming or ironing just take forever. 🙈 Anyways, Walt Disney never claimed he wanted to represent the world in it's reality. The purpose of his films, which you are mostly referring to here, has always been the opposite, which is why him and his team often made significant changes to the stories in order to romanticize the plotlines and adjust their deeper morals to the social standards and gender roles of the time. I guess that's why most American audiences associate fairytales in general with feel-good stories. And although we have now reached the 21th century, most modern Disney films are still rather unrealistic and over the top. But then again, WE ALL NOW THAT WHEN WE TURN ON A DISNEY PRODUCTION! 😄 If you want fairytales that depict a harsh - or at least a more realistic - environment, read the original tales to your children before showing them the cheesy Disney versions. 🤷🏻‍♀️ The real stories often include a whole lot more social criticism, which is why so many people could relate to those folk tales and passed them on over generations. Hans Christian Andersen's little mermaid doesn't marry her prince. She joins the nymphs who save sailors on sea. 🧜🏼‍♀️ ... Sleeping Beauty's father is a tyran king who doesn't invite the 13th fairy because her gift to the newborn princess would only be *diligence* (which princesses don't need, apparently), in the form of a symbolic spinning wheel. After she puts her spell on the princess, the king orders the burning of every single bobbin in the empire, with which he robbs most of his people of their income, so thousands starve to death ...Neither the Grimms', nor Perrault's version of Cinderella features trigger-happy singing animals (only pidgeons with one catchphrase). She does however have two stepsisters who cut off their toes / heel to fit into the shoe 🥿 ...which isn't all that inaccurate because back when marital status meant EVERYTHING, parents would force their daughters to go to great lengths for the right match! But as a child, that doesn't actually traumatize you, because a child's mind works differently and you don't pay mich attention to those details as long as the hero/ine gets her silverlining. 😊

eh! don't discount my furr babies. True story: I was having an emotional breakdown because I just got told I didn't make the cut for my dream job. My cat was in the process of jumping off the bed to go do cat things and I automatically cried at her not to leave me. She abruptly turned around and went to lay down behind my legs to stay with me.

The bigger the expectation The bigger the disappointment

Wow, I think I have to completely disagree with this video. 10: Who has ever said that real life is a musical? Geesh... 9: And this one is true only if you encounter a wizard or a sorceress or magic in some other way. 8: Conflicts between a parent and a child are real in many people's lives, and I don't see what Elsa's and Anna's parents could have done differently. 7: So you don't think that bad stepmothers or uncles exist? Luckily though, Bruno from "Encanto" is the most wonderful example of a good Disney uncle. 6: So you don't think that Mulan and Moana should have saved their countries? Some of these characters had to escape an abusive adult, and Riley had no chance to end up in danger before she returned to her parents. 5: Eh, it's fiction? It is not like cartoons have to be realistic all the time. 4: So we can see that this point is only against the four first Disney Princess movies, so it's clear that it's not an issue with newer works. Still, it is hardly unheard of that a couple hit it off immediately (that is what my sister and her husband did, for example). 3: Coachman from "Pinocchio" never got any punishment that we saw, and I truly hate that bastard. 2: Eh, it's fiction. Anna did have some really messy hair in one scene when she was waken up in the morning though. 1: Mary Poppins and Merlin could use magic to do housework, Snow White is a completely unrealistic character and Giselle is just a lame parody of her. Cinderella was clearly angry at Lucifer when he got the clean floor dirty, and I don't think that Arthur liked to do the dishes at all. Honorable Mentions: Again, it's fiction. And unless a powerful sorceress is walking around your neighborhood, it is very much safe to not let strangers in.

Cleaning the house is a little less miserable listening to Ms Mojo's videos. Thank you!

As much as I loved the Disney fairy tale movies of old, I'm glad Once Upon A Time explored the relationships with so much more depth. My OTP has to be Snow and Charming, AKA Mary Margaret and David

I did sing to myself songs I made up when I was younger but only when no one was around. Not every Disney bad person got caught. Every bad person from Pinocchio is still out there doing their bad thing like turning kids into donkeys. I do talk to my pets and furniture and expect them to talk back. Singing as I work dose help with the housework.

I nodded way too hard at this video.

I guess oodelalee in Robin Hood counts for inspiring a catchy "Hampster" song that is nonstop (for vacations at least).

The lie that Disney taught me is that honey was good. The way Winnie the Pooh ate it made it seem like it was smooth and perfect. It's just super sticky.

I've never had a Disney like romance

Parents just don't understand. Interesting. Now that I'm a parent and I'm told that constantly. It's like I'm not that old I remember what it was like to be your age, little teenager. 😂😅 Disney definitely ruined my views on love and relationships though. That shit doesn't exist. that's not real. Disney gave us all false hopes of security when we were Young and then we all grew up to be cynical jaded bitter adults that hate everything 🤷🏾‍♂️

I wish I had animals help me with the household chores!

“Just whistle while you work”. - Snow White

Nobody ever ages ⏳️

I just love to hear some of the songs that help me to relax at times

Did no one tell you guys that cartoons (especially Disney) is SUPER unrealistic?

This is why you should never believe that movies are real

Very very great epic list I like it a lot very very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 😊❤

I sing my own musical numbers all the time

Truthfully, housework COULD be fun. But I guess it depends on that person's point of view for it to not be fun.

But housework is fun when you play music and clean to the music.

Haha, sadly, ongoing childhood trauma teaches you more about the world than any movie ever could.

"Take flight, no airplane required" Happy sunday night, Emely. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.

So true 😭😂

For me, the number one expectation is no matter how much you want and try for something (and sing about it or wish on stars), your dreams don't always come true. Some things just remain out of your reach.

*sings* I'm mad at Disney Disney, had me wishing on a shooting star!

In the real world, most of us will die alone and unloved.

I've never thought house cleaning was fun!

3:57 Why are there never Step-Fathers?

Cinderella WOULD WHOLEHEARTEDLY DISAGREE the housework is 'fun' as her stepmother and stepsisters were tyrants to her 😡

When we’re older we realize the older Disney movies have a darker side to them

I know where the whole True Love At 1st Sight comes from. In Greek mythology and rl, people were infatuated with one another and mistook it for love. There's a difference in reality. That's why. Elsa and Kristoff were right when talking down to Anna about wanting to merry someone she just met and thinking that it was real love when she knew nothing about Hans, only little bits he gave.

Funny story! I did chop my own hair off with scissors when I was in second grade because I wanted to be like Mulan. As you can imagine, it did not turn out well and then I had to get a boys haircut right before picture day haha

I was talking to my therapist the day before this dropped about how I don’t know what "happy" means maybe because of "happily ever after"

Disney didn't teach me that housework is fun. Agador from the Birdcage taught me housework can be fun

Okay, believing things as a kid is one thing, but if anyone actually does grow up and believes Disney stuff for actual reality, then they deserve to be tricked.

Expectations like these are the main reason why people are better off watching GOOD book to film adaptations instead of Disney movies. Anyone who still believes in the so-called Disney magic is a fool in my eyes.

Good thing I watched these movies only as a kid Because I forgot about all of them

More than anything it shows that evil doesn’t win cause Disney has reminded me after dealing with some harassment /bullying as an adult to stop acting like a child and get my nose out of the books The bravest thing you can do is to remember who you are as a person/ and to keep a good head on your shoulders Don’t have to follow the crowd or listen to those negative comments Be your own person and find your own confidence and look at where that takes you. That’s what Disney has reminded me of and has also reminded me that just cause I’m into books - Art - and journaling doesn’t make me a bad person It’s all about finding your inner voice and remembering who you are and what’s in your heart The right people in your life will notice that and will love you no matter what So that is one truth have found consistently in Disney movies Stay true to who you are and don’t change that just cause someone may use it as an excuse to not like you. They aren’t worth your time Focus on your own dreams and as long as you continue to give it 100 percent and focus on the friends who love you for you - that’s what’s important. and will succeed That is one realistic thing you can expect from Disney movies

Idk I have some pretty crappy aunts/unkles

disney had us thinking we couldn't trust any adults!

I can't tell you how many times I tried to jump off the couch and fly as a kid. Was disappointed every time

Don't forget that fairytales can give children unrealistic expectations of love.

What about running away as an adult with a credit card?

Whoops!

Number one, lie: Good things; always happen. In the, dark.

9 and 10 sound like Ms Mojo ran out of ideas. Only kids that gullible are toddlers. That's why you teach them early not to believe everything they see in cartoons. #8 is mostly a 90s and early 2000s trend that needs to die in peace. 7-2 are believable, but #1 is the most ridiculous. I never knew a single Disney kid that was fooled into thinking chores are fun. Most of my classmates growing up, me included, would complain about our least favorite chores. 🤣

Not to mention About the family issue when 1 of them is getting judged because he didn’t do anything bad but that means Doing nothing useful for them and then He’s the awful person for not doing anything that harmed any1 but help or just or your own Business

For #9; it's not just furniture and knick-knacks we thought had personalities and feeling. Our toys. After I watched Toy Story for the first time, it basically scared me straight to treat my toys with the most respect and love. (I know that was Pixar back then but my point still stands) Everything else, I hadn't thought too hard about before, but you make a lot of good points.

Disney Pixar the dest

Disney made me thing I grow up, find my “true love” easily, he’d be perfect in every way and we would love happily ever after. Has not happened yet

I think i might genuinely believe in a few too many of these(note:sometimes a bad idea.)

WHAT?! You mean those Disney movies weren't based in reality? Gee, do you suppose that's why the genre's called fantasy?

How about picking the right clothes or how anyone can sing, or boundaries or how hard it can it be to make friends,

Love! There is no Prince Charming to rescue you!

Another honorable mention: if you’re upset and need a good cry, fling yourself over a piece of furniture (be it a bench, a rock, a bed, etc) and sob and sob until someone magical comes to rescue you and save the day

Monica loves cleaning!

This one os more subtle, but intergenerational trauma and decades of abuse (emotional or physical) do not just suddenly disappear because someone has a sudden chamge of heart or the perpetrator dies. For example, I love the move Encanto, but the ending feels too forced. You don't go through decades of being told you are nothing and then forget all that because Grandma suddenyl said she actually loves you. There are years of therapy needed to get there. Lots of other examples, I am sure.

There can be a musical portion of your life if you try hard enough and don’t care what anyone thinks.

What a shame that music just doesn’t play randomly in everyday life.

It seems a little lazy to me to have a list about how fiction is actually…Fiction

Anyway, Remember about elementals dear Ms mojo? So Amber was a bit exagerating about her behavior but she also on pressure about relationship and then forcing any1 to believe that She always wrong but that’s not the only worst,The water people from the film example they also Treat Fire people as Troublemakers, enemy’s and guys that just make the situation worst, making us believe that Water is always good with diferent people by their behavior, If not Enough, How about the Diferent sex case in 2022 strange world wich always make the parents look to be very bad ones and not understanding their issue or even about their own ideias, but if not the case how about

This is why kids grow up bitter

The Disney of today is not the happiest place on earth, twenty plus years ago it was.

Extremely Goofy Movie totally lied me into thinking college was gonna be like it was portrayed in the movie

It ain't disney, but... Harry Potter would at the VERY LEAST have had trust issues, trauma from his treatment by the Dursleys... Nah fam, he is this amazing perfect little guy who just functions emotionally! 😅

I think the biggest lie Disney taught is if you’re a good person and you wish on a star or wish through a dream or in a wishing well, your wish will come true. Not many things happen just because you’re a good person.

😊

10 was already addressed in SNL's "High School Musical 4" during that time period Ariel was indeed right: 16 was no longer considered a "child" as long as she's already ovulating & menstruating "I know my place. It's time to learn yours" hits deep actually one of Confucianism (especially Neo-Confucianism)'s core teachings is 禮 ( _li_ , abstract concept which can mean "rites", "ceremony", "propriety", & "decorum"), and part of it is all about adherence & conformity to the established social order about 5, no matter people are increasingly into pets @6:29-@6:34 I suddenly wonder how many did she originally give birth and how many did she eat afterwards @8:32-@8:37 glaring side-eye to rhe French & South Korean entertainment industries Mulan's haircut definitely constitutes a crime in Confucianism tho...in the original "Ballad" Mulan did no such thing, as realistically both men & women had long hair fixed up into a topknot

Number 9 is not totally wrong, the idea of things having a personality can be found in asian culture. They're just not that active.

fairytale romance yeah right if it were that easy I'd have married my ex girlfriend Lauren by now and probably have a baby on the way instead here I am 2 months from turning 30 and I'm single and sad

Another misguided and misleading thing is that woman are expected to be perfect. For example, I wish I could be the perfect daughter (Moana). That perfect girl is gone (Elsa).

I’m mad at Disney they tricked me

Disney das prove its points

Hi there mommy 😅😅

An elaboration of number four should be number one. Modern day women believe that all marriages and relationships to be like disney.
